3 1 Introduction Thank you for choosing AGRETO Heavy Duty Modules. You have acquired rugged weighing technology for everyday practical use. Please read this manual carefully before taking the weighing equipment in operation. In this manual, as usual "weight" is used in common parlance, the term for the mass. 2 Scope of delivery The delivery of a set of 4 modules include: 4 Load cells 4 Movable load feet 4 Ground plates 4 Top plates 8 Lift locks Screws and fixing material 1 Junction box 10m Connection cable to the display This manual A weighing system can consist of 3 to 8 modules. 3 Intended use The Agreto Heavy Duty Modules can be used universally. Through the integrated liftlock and by the inclusion of lateral forces by the load application design, they can be mounted on any type of silos, containers, feed mixer, or other constructions. The load cells can be connected to all common weighing displays. The AGRETO Heavy Duty Modules aren't officially calibratable and therefore not authorized to determine weights for legal transactions. The scale is used as a checkweigher for internal use. Seite:3

4 4 Security 4.1 Safety Instructions for the buyer IMPORTANT! Make sure that each person who works for the first time with the product, has read and understood this manual. 4.2 Safety instructions for the operator DANGER! Die AGRETO heavy duty modules may only be operated by persons who are familiar with the operation of the device. PRECAUTION! Keep the work area clean! Soiled areas contributes to accidents. PRECAUTION! Note the crushing hazard for the establishment and handling with the weighing construction. PRECAUTION! Note the risk of injury from stumbling and inattention while the assembly, disassembly, and adjustment operations. Seite:4

5 For persons who are engaged in the assembly, dismantling or adjustments, the wearing of safety shoes are required. For persons who are engaged in the assembly, dismantling or adjustments, the wearing of protective gloves is mandatory. 4.3 Residual Hazards Working with the device residual risks may arise for persons and objects that cannot be prevented by design or technical protection measures. WARNING! The AGRETO weighing feet must not be operated in explosive areas. 5 Technical Specifications Nominal load: Secure overload: 150 % Breaking load: 300 % Working temperature: -35 bis +65 C Temperature compensated range: -10 bis +40 C Power supply: Resistance: Signal: Cable length: 5t/10t/15t per load cell (depending on version) 5 bis 15 Volt DC 350 Ohm 2 mv/v 6,5 m Accuracy: + / - 0,02% Protection class: IP 68 Seite:5

6 6 Mounting the Agreto heavy duty modules The base plates of the modules are screwed down firmly with 4 concrete anchors in concrete or 4 other screws in other materials. These screws are individual and are not supplied. If the installation situation permits, it is useful to first install the assembly, and then screw the modules to the ground. All modules must be positioned in such a way that, in the ready-screwed state, the head plate is exactly centered over the middle feet. This position can best be checked at the side gap of the two screws for the anti-lifting device. This side gap must be the same size in all directions. 7 Mounting the construction For the assembly of the structure on the head plates 4 bolts per mounting module are included. The load of the structure should act as centrally as possible on the top plates. In the locked position, the head plate must be absolutely parallel to the base plate are, so that no stresses occur in the lift lock. The structure should be dimensioned so that the structure deforms as little as possible and the load is introduced into the weighing feet vertically over all load ranges. Please also note that the weight of the structure reduces the maximum load of your scale. Assemble the installation modules as much as possible at the edge of your construction to prevent a tipping (risk of injury, risk of overload). The junction box should be mounted as high as possible in a safe place. Make sure that the cables are properly routed. In a cable damage the entire load cell must be replaced. Seite:6

7 8 Adjustment of the lift lock With two M16 bolts per mounting module, the lift lock and the inclusion of lateral forces are ensured. These screws are tightened lightly and supplied as transport fixation and must be adjusted after installation of the modules in any case. They must be adjusted so that no pulling action is produced on the load cells and the load and does not rest on these screws. The total load may be transferred only over the moving load foot in the middle and on the load cell. The screws are then fixed with the lower nuts in the set position. Seite:7

8 9 Junction box Each of the load cell cables is routed through one of the cable glands into the supplied junction box and connected in the junction box to the terminal blocks. If you need to disconnect the load cells during installation follow on reconnecting the pin assignment below: Cable color load cell Version 1 Version 2 Marking on the circuit board Red + Brown Red + Green EX + (power supply plus ) Black + Yellow Black + Yellow EX - (power supply minus ) Blue Blue SI + (signal plus ) White White SI - (signal minus ) Transparent Yellow (shrinked) SHI (shielding) Tighten the cable glands, insert the gel cushion back into the box and close the cover. Attach the junction box, and all cables at a suitable point on the underside of the platform. Ensure a careful routing of the cables. The junction box should be mounted in a dry, protected place. 10 Connecting the Weighing Indicator If you use an Agreto weighing indicator, the right plug has been installed to the connection cable and you just need to connect to the weighing indicator. The Agreto weighing indicator comes with a separate user manual, where you can read about the operation of the scale. If you use a different weighing indicator you can find the pin assignment below: Cable No. Cable colour (if existing) Marking 1 Yellow EX - (power supply - minus) 2 Brown EX + (power supply - plus) 3 White SI - (signal - minus) 4 Green SI + (signal - plus) Seite:8

9 11 Troubleshooting If you can assume weight deviations at your scale this can have the following causes: The screws of the lift lock are adjusted too far at the top and transfer loads from the structure to the base plate. -> Adjust the screws on the lift lock as per details. The screws of the lift lock are adjusted too far down and pre-load the load cell. -> Adjust the screws on the lift-off as per details. The construction deflects and thus generates lateral forces on the load cells. -> Strengthen (or reduce) you construction. The scale construction is somewhere in contact with a wall or another object. -> Place the scales so, that no part of the scale construction is somewhere in contact with another object. One or more cables are damaged. -> look for the corner, at which a wrong weight is displayed and check the appropriate cable. If there is a damage to the cable, the affected cable, including load cell must be replaced. There is moisture in the junction box. -> Open the junction box, and dry the junction gently with a hair dryer for about 15 minutes. Are all the points listed above excluded is one or more load cells defect. -> Please contact the manufacturer. Seite:9
